4-hour transit in Beijing on separate airline ticket

Upvote:1

You are having two international flights Honkong is considered international. If you have two separate tickets you will have two perform border crossing into China, take you luggage, check in and then go back through security and through the border crossing. I think you will be eligible for transit visa, but you should keep in mind that arrival border is very busy and have long queues. I think that this will take you 3-4 hours.

You should also keep in mind that Air China has very low performance. My last flight was delayed for just 3 hours.

So for safe transit I will recommend to have 8-10 hours between flights.

In some airports you can avoid border crossing if you traveling with hand luggage and has checked in online, but it seems that it is not possible in Beijing, as the online checking for international departures in Beijing is not possible (at least when traveling by Air China)
